Epics

Epics are individuals who were gifted powers by Calamity a year after its appearance in the sky. Their powers vary, as do the weaknesses that negate them, but one trait is shared by all epics. Their power corrupts them, reverts them to a childlike state of disregard for the importance of others. This makes Epics more than just people with powers- any Epic who is not making a conscious effort to keep their powers and themselves under control is dangerous to every mundane human around them.
